Is a Neom diffuser worth it?

I am trying to take better care of myself and my well-being. I am using a daily meditation and am starting to use an oil diffuser that has been languishing at the back of the cupboard.
I am currently diffusing the spa oil from White Company which is nice and relaxing.
What other oils can I try? Looking at neom the oils and the diffuser look expensive but are they any better than my current cheap diffuser?
Thinking I could treat myself it they are better. Does anyone have the Neom diffuser? Would you recommend?
Any oil recommendations?
Sorry for the long thread Grin

I've got one and it's fairly meh. Wouldn't waste the money.

I’m lying on my bed as I type, with an Oliver Bonas diffuser I got for Christmas, and oil that I bought from sainsburys yesterday. The brand is Aromaworks, the oil is ‘deep relax’ and it’s half price £5 for 2 bottles. It’s absolutely amazing!
I did get a Neilds Yard oil with the lamp, but this is far superior.
Get to Sainsburys and buy some before they sell out!
My dd, who bought me the lamp, has the Neom one. Paid a fortune. She thinks mine is just as nice, the oils just as gorgeous and thinks she wasted her money.

Well I love my Neom pod, but I'm not that price sensitive and the appearance of the thing is important to me.

I use various oils in it (some Neom and some not - I have some Tisserand ones which are lovely) and it's on virtually every day so certainly not a waste of money for me. Plus I like the lighting it provides Smile.

I have their original diffuser, which is great in large rooms. Small cheaper diffusers off Amazon are better for smaller spaces.

I find Neom oils have a fake/heavily processed smell so avoid them. If you’d like to test them out before you buy their oils are on display in John Lewis.

I buy mine from ID Aromatics who are based in Leeds.

They’re not the best. You have to turn the reeds all the time to get a satisfactory amount of smell - which makes them last all of ten minutes. Nice smells though. Spa-esque rather than high-end fragrance.

God, don’t buy one of their pricey pods. I did in November, it broke within 2 weeks, the customer service is shocking and I’m still waiting for a refund. I’m going to have to do a chargeback I think. In the meantime DH bought me a cheap one for Christmas and I’ve used it loads, with the lovely neom and white company oils and it’s fab. I really wouldn’t waste your money on a neom pod.

Oliver bonas ones are lovely - favourite is fig & apple

Myself and daughters all have the Neom well-being pods including the mini’s. We love them. Bought them with discount and use cheaper oils. Refuse to pay £20 for an oil. The white stuff oils are good and half the price.

I don't have a neom diffuser, I have a much cheaper electric diffuser
I do use neom oils in it though and even though they are expensive I only use them, they make the room smell lovely. I try to buy them from ASOS when they have 20% off

I have one - I expect you could get diffusers that work just as effectively and look nice too. It’s a pretty standard plastic base underneath the shell.

Thank you all - will stick with my cheap diffuser pod for now and check out some of the oils recommended. Will also look at ASOS for some oils in the same.
